On Friday afternoon there was an advertised Birthday Party for Smokey The Bear at the Colville Museum but Smokey never showed. It was still a fun experience to walk around the museum and the museum grounds.
On Saturday we took a early morning trip to Spokane to make purchases to re-stock the kitchen cupboards at church since our VBS week depleted all the stock. The sunflower fields were not in their glory but it was fun to whiz by the fields of yellow and green.
Sunday morning was a wonderful church service with our VBS kids starting us off with one of their VBS Songs, God made the Manatee. From beginning to end it was good to worship God together.
On Sunday evening we celebrated our Grands’ Granny’s birthday at our Colville kids and this was the sunset we enjoyed driving down their driveway for home.
It was a good full weekend. Looking forward to Mid-week when Uncle Joshie and Auntie Lolo are planning a drive over the mountains for a short visit to enjoy some summer activities with us.
Have a good week everyone.

Those fields of sunflowers remind me of our time in Southern France, fields of gold!
Beautiful photos, cute shots of your grandchildren!
Take care, enjoy your day and have a great week!
…that sunset over the landscape is gorgeous. We are going to see sunflower fields today.
Oh no! I should have had my dad put on his old Smokey head and come fill in! 😄
One of the Smokeys got sick and the other one was a no show. 😦
I’m sorry to hear that Smokey missed his birthday party. He would be so sad to know that he missed meeting those two sweet ones who attended.
Your pictures are beautiful, Ellen. And the one of the Rosemary is no exception! SO pretty!
Oh my! That sunset is gorgeous!! Glad you had fun times with family and that your have some more good times coming up! Have a great day!
Sweet photos of the kiddos and such a fun way to celebrate a birthday. This certainly is beautiful scenery!
What beautiful photos! Sorry Smokey was a no show but I’m glad you enjoyed the day anyway.
Sounds like a wonderful weekend. Beautiful sunset.
Watch out, Ellen, I think those grands have a future in theater! And does “granny’s birthday” mean your birthday? If so, belated happy birthday! Looks like your having a wonderful summer!
Thanks for your faithful visits to my blog!
Hi Angie, Our Grands call me Baba and they call Jamie’s mom, Granny. Jamie’s Granny is Granny Great. It was Granny Linda’s party. Thank you for stopping by!
That sunset picture is glorious! You have to praise God for a sight like that!
I wholeheartedly agree, Donna!
